15 August 1859
Trumbull, Lyman, 1813-1896
Autograph letter signed
Title: to Thurlow Weed
Senator Trumbull writes to Weed, a political figure from New York. Relates that he will soon travel to Washington, D.C. to look into publications issued by the Republican committee, "& when these shall need funds to meet liabilities which have been incurred." Reports that E. Dodd (possibly United States Representative Edward Dodd) instructed Trumbull to call on Weed "as funds were receded, to the extent of two thousand dollars." Requests funds, and instructs Weed to write to him at the Astor House in New York City.
